Live Face Swap is a browser-based real-time AI face swap studio that uses a webcam feed and a chosen reference face to generate a transformed live video you can record, stream, or use in video calls. It runs in Chrome, Edge, or Safari on Windows, Mac, Android, and iPhone, processes AI video in the cloud, and does not require a dedicated GPU or desktop installation.
What is Live Face Swap?
Live Face Swap takes a gallery face or an uploaded reference photo plus a live webcam feed, then renders a transformed camera view in real time. It outputs a live preview, optional recorded clips, edited MP4 exports, original MP4 or WebM downloads, and PNG stills, all inside a browser studio. The page does not name a maker; it markets the studio as running without a dedicated AI GPU.
What makes Live Face Swap stand out?
- Live webcam transformation with reference photos — choose a gallery face or upload JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, or HEIF images up to 10 MB; the reference sets the face appearance while the webcam supplies expressions and movement.
- Recording and editing in one browser studio — preview, record in portrait 9:16 or landscape 16:16, stop and start takes, trim the start and finish, adjust microphone audio timing, and download the original or a prepared MP4 without moving to another editor.
- Stream and call output — the transformed camera feed can be brought into OBS and supported video-call apps after previewing the look before going live or joining.
- Restyle visual styles — turn camera footage into anime-inspired or illustrated scenes and compare the same expressions and movements across styles before choosing a visual direction.
- Try-On outfit and costume previews — compare everyday outfits or character costume references on the same person as they move, without changing clothes between ideas.
- Clip tools and still export — compare live face swap takes, keep clips separate, delete unwanted clips, save the displayed face swap or a recorded frame as PNG.
- Credit-based AI usage — camera setup and connection waiting are free; AI credits begin when the live face swap first appears and continue until Stop or End is clicked.
- Cloud processing without a dedicated GPU — runs on Windows PCs, Macs, Android phones, and iPhones in Chrome, Edge, or Safari; stable internet is required and compatibility varies by device and browser version.
Who should use Live Face Swap?
- Streamers and gaming creators: build a recurring on-camera character, test it while speaking, turning, and reacting, then bring the transformed camera feed into OBS for gaming or live chats.
- Video-call users: act out a scene with friends or let callers guess the character, preview the face swap before joining, then use the transformed camera feed in a supported video-call app.
- Character and reaction creators: act out a scene, record an introduction, or capture a reaction, try the same line with different reference faces, and save favorite takes for a longer video.
- Outfit and costume testers: use Try-On to compare clothing or character costume references on the same moving person before choosing a look.
